Okay.
So.
I have a fence right against where the sidewalk is.
There is an open area just after where the kid drops off the paper every morning.
It shows up where it normally is supposed to, but rolled up.
Is this because of the fence?

Also, I've been using 'motivedecay off' so that my sims can get their home business up and running.
They haven't been eating or anything like that, just working at the benches.
Random dirty plates have began showing up on the lot, and my sims can't pick them up; nor can I delete them using 'moveObjects on'.
I recently installed the Bon Voyage patch.
Could that be a glitch because of the patch?

- The fence could be causing the oddness with the paper. On my Goth household the paper is always delivered down the side of the house because thats the only place the paperboy can get to because of the fence.

- Have your Sims built any munchiebots and are they using one on the lot? It sounds like a munchiebot has broken and when that happens they leave the lot and bring back dirty plates instead of food. It'll keep doing this until you turn it off and repair it. Just turning it off isn't enough as they reactivate themselves when broken.
I'm not sure why you can't clean the plates up but I can't clean up plates brought back by a broken munchiebot either. I think its a maxis coding error.

That explains a lot.
I had a fence almost all the way around the perimeter.


And I built several munchiebots for my home business, but there weren't any in use on the lot.

I moved them out of the house anyways, they already had a son and my female had twins and it was only a two-bedroom house.
But I was just curious as to why it was happening.
